Fes (Fez) City Tour with English Speaking Guide
Step back centuries into the world of Fes (Fez). In addition to the European part, built after the First World War, there is Fes el Jédid c.14AD and Fes el Bali c.9AD. The Old Medina of Fes el Bali is a World Heritage Site and one of the largest medieval cities of its type - its narrow cobbled streets are filled with ancient mosques and towering green-glazed minarets. Losing yourself here is akin to losing yourself in time, until you emerge into the clatter of a busy souk where proud artisans craft objects as their forefathers did before them.
Fes (Fez) Day Trips
The most popular day trip from Fes is to the roman ruins at Volubilis and Meknes.
Fes to Fes Sahara Trips - 3 days and 4 days
Fes to Fes desert tours to Merzouga, and the Erg Chebbi sand dunes, in a private 4x4. Your driver will pick you up from your hotel, riad or even the airport and transfer you via Azrou, cedar forests where Barbary apes live, Ziz gorge, Erfoud and Rissani to Merzouga. Merzouga lies at the base of the Erg Chebbi dunes and, from here, you can camel trek with a desert guide for one night or more e.g. 2 days, 3 days, 4 days or longer. After your Erg Chebbi camel trek, spend a full day exploring the desert region with your driver e.g. fossil beds, Gnawa musicians, seasonal lakes, Merzouga village and perhaps Rissani souk if it is the day of the market.
Fes to Marrakech Tours with Erg Chebbi – 3, 4 or 5 days
We recommend at least three nights/four days for a Fes to Marrakech desert tour although this trip can be done in 3 days if you have limited time. Suggested itinerary for a Fes to Marrakech desert tour:
- Day 1 – Fes to Merzouga via Azrou, Cedar Forests and Ziz Valley Gorge. Your driver will meet you at your hotel to transport you to the desert village of Merzouga via Azrou, the cedar forests and Ziz gorge. This is an interesting route and you can stop for lunch in a Berber café. Arrive at the edge of the Erg Chebbi dunes and check into a hotel at the dune from where you can safely wander in the immediate desert to watch the sunset.
- Day 2 – Desert exploration and Erg Chebbi camel trek to overnight at a desert camp. Explore the desert region with your driver e.g. fossil beds, seasonal lakes, Gnawa musicians, Merzouga and perhaps Rissani on souk day. In the late afternoon we offer sunset Erg Chebbi camel treks to a desert camp and a night in a nomad tent but, if camel trekking is not for you, take an sunset camel ride and spend a second night in the hotel at the dune line with pool.
- Day 3 – Merzouga to Ouarzazate via Todra Gorge and Rose Valley. Transfer to Ouarzazate via Todra Gorge, Kelaa Mgouna (valley of the roses), the valley of one thousand kasbahs and Skoura palmerie.
- Day 4 – Ouarzazate to Marrakech via Ait Benhaddou and the Berber village of Telouet. Visit Ait Benhaddou, a World Heritage Site and one of Morocco’s most spectacular ksours (fortified villages) that lay along the lucrative caravan route through the Atlas mountains. Continue to Marrakech via the High Atlas village of Telouet and the abandoned Kasbah of el Glaoui. Lunch in Telouet and continue across the Tizi-n-Tichka Atlas mountain pass enjoying the far-reaching views of small Berber villages that cling to the mountainsides.
If camel trekking and desert dunes are not your idea of a holiday, design your own itinerary with the highlights of your choice e.g. archaeological sites and Imperial Cities.
